Jeff,
  Just put a maxsize on the tempfile when you create it, or alter it:

alter database tempfile '/temp01.dbf' autoextend on maxsize 1024m;

that lets it grow to 1gb an no more.

Subject: limit space usage in temporary tablespace

With 8.1.7 and dictionary managed permanent temporary tablespace, we have maxextents set to 505. Therefore, if someone starts to utilize all of our temp space they will hit maxextents long before taking all the space. This guards against the "bad" one time query.=20 With 9.2, we will switch to locally managed temporary tablespaces. As such, there is no maxextents value. Is it possible to limit how much space a given connection uses with these types of tablespaces or will a user just "grab it all".
=20
